Superbowl XLVIII Projection, Week 7, Sunday

Kansas City over Seattle

Kansas City and Seattle remain on top, while Denver drops a game back in the standings behind KC. The two still have their 2 division games upcoming, which could swing those standings the opposite way, but it's clear now Peyton Manning is not invincible on the road.

The Rams let Steve Smith rile them up with trash talk, and lost their cool against the Panthers. There were entirely too many scuffles, fights, and ejections (1). Oh, and we lost our QB for the rest of the year. The Rams don't have the raw talent to make up for meltdowns like that, so they're going to have to learn to combat trash talk with excellent play, not behavior that gets penalized. Jeff Fisher seemed really vague about the plans for the Rams at QB, but the current word is that Kellen Clemens is starting Monday Night next week, Tim Tebow is off the table, and the Rams haven't ruled out picking up multiple QBs, since they're down to 1 at the moment. I hear Marc Bulger still lives in town...
